What Is Breast Augmentation Revision?

Breast augmentation revision is performed for a variety of reasons, including to update older implants after 10-15 years. Some patients may request the procedure to change cup sizes or switch implant types. Others desire a complete removal of their devices, in a procedure known as breast explant surgery. Regardless of your specific needs and goals, Dr. Haque has the specialized techniques, extensive training background, and consummate skill to deliver exceptional results.

Who Are the Best Candidates For Breast Augmentation Revision?

Breast implant revision is recommended for patients struggling with any of the following:

  • Deflated or ruptured saline implants
  • An MRI/ultrasound that shows a rupture in a silicone device
  • Implant migration (high, low, or to the side)
  • Capsular contracture
  • A desire to replace the implants with a different size, shape, or type of device
  • Other medical or aesthetic concerns

If you are unhappy with the results of a primary breast augmentation procedure, Dr. Haque can meet with you for a private consultation to determine whether you are a good candidate for revision surgery.

Dr. Haque performs breast augmentation revision with expertise, attention to detail, and the utmost precision, delivering the following benefits for his Charlotte, NC, patients:

What to Expect on the Day of Breast Augmentation Revision

On the day of your surgery, you will be welcomed into our Charlotte, North Carolina, facility, where you will have a chance to ask any last-minute questions and briefly review your treatment plan. Prior to surgery, you will be given general anesthesia, which allows you to sleep deeply while Dr. Haque exchanges your implants or removes them altogether.

The doctor strives to reuse your previous incisions whenever possible, but the surgery may require new incisions, leading to additional scars. When appropriate, Dr. Haque will utilize advanced surgical techniques, such as capsulotomy, capsulectomy, mastopexy, or fat grafting. His primary goal is to ensure an aesthetically pleasing final outcome and relief from complications.

Once all changes have been completed, your incisions will be closed with fine sutures, and you will be dressed with a compression garment. You will begin the healing process in our recovery area, where the doctor will carefully monitor you until you can safely return home.

Breast Augmentation Revision Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Breast Augmentation Revision Care

After your procedure, you will be accompanied home by a friend, family member, or responsible adult, as you will still be slightly groggy from anesthesia. Similar to your primary breast augmentation procedure, you may experience mild swelling, soreness, and bruising in the chest post-op. These symptoms will gradually lessen with time and can be alleviated by taking prescription pain medications and continuing to wear your compression garment. The doctor may also place drains to remove excess fluids and blood from your body, thereby expediting your healing. Your sutures and drains are usually removed within the first week. Make sure to follow all of Dr. Haque’s instructions and steer clear of strenuous workouts for 4 to 6 weeks.

How Much Does Breast Augmentation Revision Cost in Charlotte, NC?

The cost of breast augmentation revision in Charlotte may vary depending on your goals, the type of implants selected, and whether your surgery is combined with other aesthetic options, such as fat transfer, a breast lift, or a mommy makeover. Dr. Haque will offer you personalized pricing after he completes your initial medical and physical evaluation.
